Nursing assessment indicates that a long-term care resident has limited use of the right side of his body, but is coherent at intervals. If this patient develops decubiti, which factor might the nurse consider to be a mitigating factor for the facility's plea to limit liability?
◦ The resident is unable to obtain proper nutrition because of his refusal to eat.
◦ The resident must be confined to bed for prolonged periods of time because of his condition.
◦ Nursing notes reveal that the patient is repositioned frequently, but somehow manages to return to the back-lying position.
◦ Understaffing prevents the nurses from performing necessary passive range of motion exercises to the patient's affected side.
